The last two images are definitely springtails – we’ve been seeing them all over our buildings (mostly office spaces) this summer. They eat mold/decaying plant matter mostly and love humidity

Just when I think I get a grasp on the museum pests we will have, I get a few curve balls! First: Furniture Beetle larvae? It's very small, ~1mm, which is smaller than the info sheets - but do those larvae start that size and grow proportionally until pupation? Second: Some kind of beetle - also very small, ~1mm Third: Is this a silverfish larvae? again, very small, ~1mm Much appreciated. I'm always very relieved to have this list for assistance when my own search is inconclusive.
